Grab Buyers' Attention with Video

From home decor to gardening tools, Marketplace is the perfect place to sell items that are taking up space in your storage and adding clutter to your closets. It’s also filled with opportunities to build a small business, connect with your community, and share hobbies with your friends, family, neighbors, and the world!

As a seller on Marketplace, you may already be familiar with how photos can show buyers what your product looks like, prove the legitimacy of your item, and ultimately entice them to reach out. Now you can level up your listings by recording or uploading a video — because a video can do what multiple photos can do in one!

By working with the Marketplace community, we’ve discovered that sellers that add a video to their listing are more likely to receive a message. There are multiple reasons why this is the case, including increased trust and transparency between buyers and sellers, more details to help draw attention to your listings, and proof that an item and its seller are real.

Looking to benefit from this insight? Adding videos to your listing can be a key tool for increasing interest in your Marketplace listings. When creating or editing a listing, you can add or record a video that’s 60 seconds or less. If you decide not to add a video to your listing, you may still receive messages from buyers asking for a video — which can be a great opportunity to share a 360-degree view of your product and provide even more details.

Whether you’re looking to craft the best listing possible or grab attention from multiple buyers, adding a video is one of the best ways you can stand out on Marketplace.
